Sydney Cricket Ground

This guide to the Sydney Cricket Ground follows Stephen 'Yabba' Gascoigne, a rabbit seller from Balmain who spent decades in the early 1900s heckling Test cricketers from the cheap grass mound known as the Hill. It traces his sharpest lines against players and touring English captains, and the minute of silence cricket officials held when he died in 1942. Listen near where the old grass slope once rose above the ground.
